Good Places For Holidays For 16 Year Olds In The Uk?
Posted on 13 April 2009
Some of my friends (mixed gender) and I are planning to go away by ourselves in the summer after we have finished our GCSE's. Does anybody know of any good places where we might go, especially if it is cheap, us being 16 year olds after all. What I'm specifically looking for really are people who have done this sort of thing when they were this sort of age and had a good time - where did you go, what did you do, etc? Both my friends and myself live in the south west, so nearby but not too nearby would be ideal.

Unfortunately, a lot of places won’t rent to a group of 16 year olds for a number of reasons… You’re not 18 so if anything were to happen to you it would be their legal responsibility, which they are not willing to take. You’re all 16 and looking to have a good time..Meaning trashed rooms/areas to some people, underage drinking, being loud etc.
But we still had a good time, and actually some people our age were camping next to us came from the same area as us so we got chatting etc.
But stay safe and be responsible too.
Some camp sites may let you set up a tent, but I highly doubt you’ll be able to rent a caravan. You’ll be able to rent a room in a hotel/hostel. Hostels are cheaper, but then doors close in hostel’s at around 11.
After GCSE’s, my friends and I went to the east coast (we live in the midlands) and camped right next to the beach. It was hard to find a campsite that let a group of 16 year olds stay, and we almost got kicked out actually because we were too loud
Really, at any seaside area should be a number of campsites/hostels/hotels. Just choose a certain area with things to do – like nice beaches, shops, arcades or whatever – and then do a little research about accommodation in that area. Make sure it’s safe too.. The place we stayed at was actually an area where one of my friends visited often so they knew the area well.
When going remember to have a good time
